I must agree with brother Dominick on the wording in this instance the term "Roman Catholic" is a derogatory term coined by the serial wife killer Henry VIII. The Latin Church or the Latin Rite Catholics is more appropriate or perhaps Latin Patriarch would be a more Ecumenical phrase if you wanted to have some fun with it.

OT:
I often wonder why Mary I was called "bloody Mary"; when it was Elizabeth I who executed more than 1,000 Catholics? I also blame her for setting up the climate to allow a monster like Oliver Cromwell to flourish.

Pardon the bitter taste of persecution. I need a Guinness to wash it out.
